Hi Pako,

These are lovely. The second with the soft focus is 'dreamy' and I like the softness and the patchy glow of the overall look.

Beautiful shots continue in this challenge. I thought I'd throw in one of my autumn shots.

Taken with the Tamron 17-50, ISO100, F2.8, 17mm, 1/160 sec. Desaturated the back ground to let the foreground stand out, while still in the overall context of a beech wood.
Nex 5, Nex 6 (IR), A7M2, A99 and a bunch of lenses.

Here are a couple of takes on Fall/Autumn Colour, sneaking in just before the challenge closes! Not sure that they can compete with some of the other great shots though.....
